What does the work involve?
Some essential maintenance is being carried out on the back-end systems our Broadband Fault Checker depends on.

Am I likely to notice the work?
You won't be able to access our Broadband Fault Checker for the duration of the maintenance window and holding pages will be in place.

Is there anything else I need to know?
Our support staff will have no access to some BT back-end systems for the majority of the maintenance window.

For enhanced care faults please call the support team on the usual telephone number. Due to the nature of the work we will be unable to progress faults.

Planned BT Network Maintenance - Week commencing 30th March 2015

27/03/2015 @ 13:44

When is this work happening?
Overnight throughout the week.

What does it affect?
Broadband connectivity.

How long will it take?
Up to six hours each time.

What does the work involve?
We've received notifications from our suppliers about maintenance work that is scheduled to take place in the following areas this week. This work typically takes place between midnight and 6am.

Although these are the areas or exchanges we have been notified of, due to the nature of the broadband network these outages may affect customers nationwide. There are also a number of smaller exchange works most nights of the week that may cause smaller outages at individual exchanges.

Am I likely to notice the work?
Yes, there's a chance that you may be disconnected from the internet for a period of time during the maintenance window.

Is there anything else I need to know?
Any customers having problems connecting once the maintenance is complete are advised to log into their router interface and click connect.

Kind regards,
